Popular Post Trev52A Posted August 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) Some DMUs from the 1970s and 1980s in urban landscapes, crossing the High Level Bridge over the Tyne. I think I might get away with it, they are so far away you can't read the numbers. (This was mentioned as a necessity for this type of picture a page or two back!)

RMweb Premium Northmoor Posted August 23, 2020 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted August 23, 2020 Perfect Trevor! Landscape doesn't have to mean "in the country"; this is an unmistakably urban landscape. These shots remind me of the credits to "Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads", with the DMU passing in the middle distance. 4 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks a bit like a class 110 (or whatever class number the centre coaches were allocated at that time), but what would that be doing in Heaton 101 set? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Market65 Posted August 23, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 23, 2020 Hi, brushman47544. That TSL is a class 108 car. You can tell what it is from the big saloon windows, which are lower down than on other classes of unit, and the shell vents on the roof, which also spaced differently from a class 101 unit. The toilet filler pipe is different too. I hope this is of some help. Best regards, Rob. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Davexoc Posted August 25, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 25, 2020 Definitely can't see the numbers on this one, but this was an Exmouth-Paignton DMU passing Bishopsteignton reflected in the river. 10 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
